Guys don't forget that snake size matters

Of course! I am not one who hates vigilantes I would send that guy to jail too.. It doesn't make sense to keep wandering around trying to RP with a 1 mil bounty if you're expecting them to get rescued. I think the hate goes more towards when people get sent straight to jail after they have 2 self defense man slaughters for $60k. Although it is required, It still is RP. It is just poor RP. I was just giving reasons that other people likely hate vigilantes. I personally don't mind them especially for this casual RP server, however people think the vigilante aspect lacks too much RP even for this server.

Vigilantes are general disliked due to: 1. The role has a lack of RP most of the time Most vigilantes will capture you and send you straight to jail, without much of a chance to explain yourself or your charges. I have seen very few vigilantes that are arresting someone RP with that person. The most you usually get out of them is your charges read off and notified you're being sent to jail. ^^ Not complaining either. The role is meant to be a money making role for those who need it and those who want justice brought to criminals that can't/don't/aren't in the APD. 2. The stereotypical vigilante, breaks rules While most vigilantes that I have seen follow the rules perfectly or with little flaws, it is noted that people only really remember the situations in which generally, a new player that hasn't fully read/understand the rules, has either RDM'd or Vigi Abused them. This has created a stereotype for vigilantes which will most likely never end. 3. The consequences of being vigi'd are among the worst If you get killed by a rebel, you can get epi'd or revived. If you get caught by the APD, you can RP with an officer for less risk and can pay a ticket so you don't have to go to jail. If you get vigi'd, you get sent to jail. Nothing else. People would rather spend time RPing with an officer and then spending $600k on tickets then spending 3 hours in jail because a vigilante caught you when you spawned in Athira. These are just a few reasons why there is a large hate for vigilantes. @reno walkins

One of the best staff members I knew and aspired to be like. I will miss you!! o7

Do this same thing, but change the fatigues between the CSAT Recon ones you currently have on them to some random NATO one.

You can take them off manually by removing them from your y-inv, but yes, I agree they need to automatically come off.

Provided they use the English alphabet and it is out of RP, then yes.

This will probably be pretty lenient. If you have a name like Abdullah Ali-Zebediah or Phil Scfecko, etc, then you should be fine. As you stated this is more pointed towards adfsfjlljdk and llliliilill.

I was using key terms such as and the fact that he was panicking because he didn't know their location probably means that shots have been fired. Although I could be wrong of course....

Depends if he was looking like he was a part of the active situation, Ex: You're in a large fight in Sofia between your gang and another gang. Someone you don't know enters the vicinity. You may not open fire unless this individual shows hostile intent towards you. To clarify having a weapon is not a valid reason to open fire. BUT, I recommend you still compensate as you would then have to leave it to an admins discretion whether or not he looked suspicious. Best thing to do is offer compensation and apologize as @Marty said. Better safe than sorry! @TitledExpert

To add to what @DanteFleury said, RP goes both ways and if you are a cop yourself, then help other cadets and constables learn better RP. Also accept RP yourself. If someone is giving you tips on how to better yourself as a cop, don't be a narcissistic fuck and ignore it - use that info to make yourself the best cop possible. Also know that it is not about the money. Especially now with the bounty splits (which I had some doubt about them at first, but know I think they are just about the greatest thing to happen in a while), leave the money making to when you do runs on civ or if you play medic. The reason I had signed up for cop originally was to roleplay. I had R&R for money, APD for RP, and Civilian for fighting.

I suggest doing what @Tman15tmb does. Approve a trial by combat 1v1 with a 1.6 million bounty and lose.

The whole point of the post was to not have to submit a ticket for fail RP and comp when someone doesn't drop their gear. If this feature was included then I would have no problem doing the tickets for this.

I don't completely disagree with the idea, in retrospect it would be an amazing feature providing it worked just as it says it would. I just think that the risk for reward would end up not being worth it. The whole point of the idea was to prevent having to submit a ticket for fail RP and comp, but with the fact that it would likely cause even more tickets to have to be submitted due to vigi abuse, fail RP, and compensation tickets. Also could see that police keeping people always from suspects would be ridiculous. I have a hard time as is trying to RP as a lawyer because 90% of the current rotation of cops have a hard time trusting even an innocent civilian with nothing but fresh spawn clothes. Also would suck for the guy who just wanted a pardon ticket from a cadet/constable in Kavala, but lost half his gear from 3 randoms coming up and stealing it when he was restrained.

This would cause mass abuse. Vigis restraining, robbing, then sending to jail. Thats more tickets. Even cops, stealing precious BW gear. More abuse. More tickets@J0h RP wise = +1 But for the sake of prevention from you having to submit more tickets = -1

Alright so lately there has been some malware going around so make sure you guys are extra careful on things you click. One more specific I have been seeing is: Click the link and it will take you to a fake page that wants you to update flash player (really malware that could hijack your steam account). Make sure you stay extra aware and download malwarebytes or something. Also if need be make sure to change your steam password.
